Dad, Do You Remember
Dad, do you remember, when I'd stand on your feet and we'd dance?
I would still do it today, given half the chance.
Dad, do you remember, when you would swing me high in the air?
I laughed until I couldn't breathe, those times were ours to share.
Dad, do you remember, when you'd pick me up when I fell?
You would wipe away my tears and tend to my grazes as well.
Dad, do you remember, when you'd put me on the naughty chair?
I know now, that you did it because you care.
Dad, do you remember, when I would sit upon your lap?
I felt so safe and warm, so in your arms I'd nap.
Dad, do you remember, all the memories we shared together,
I have them locked in my heart, where they will stay forever.
